Adafruit Feather 32u4 Basic Proto
This is the Feather 32u4 Basic Proto, it has a bunch of prototyping space built right in. At the Feather 32u4's heart is an ATmega32u4 clocked at 8 MHz and at 3.3V logic, a chip setup Adafruit have had tons of experience with as it's the same as the Flora. This chip has 32K of flash and 2K of RAM, with built in USB, so not only does it have a USB-to-Serial program & debug capability built in with no need for an FTDI-like chip, it can also act like a mouse, keyboard, USB MIDI device, etc. This chip is well supported in the Arduino IDE and can run just about every sensor/library out there.
To make it easy to use for portable projects, a connector for any of our 3.7V Lithium polymer batteries and built in battery charging have been added. You don't need a battery, it will run just fine straight from the micro USB connector. But, if you do have a battery, you can take it on the go, then plug in the USB to recharge. The Feather will automatically switch over to USB power when its available.
